Journal ArticleDOI

Anthropometric markers of obesity and mortality in white and African American adults: the pennington center longitudinal study.

TL;DR: The purpose of this study was to determine the association between anthropometric measures of obesity and all‐cause mortality in white and African American men and women.
Journal ArticleDOI

Short sleep duration preferentially increases abdominal adiposity in adults: preliminary evidence

TL;DR: The evidence that short sleep duration is another determinant of obesity is accumulating and Lack of sleep has been reported to constitute a metabolic stressor, with increased cortisol concentrations as the end product.
Journal ArticleDOI

Aerobic and anaerobic energy contribution during maximal work output in 90 s determined with various ergocycle workloads.

TL;DR: It is concluded that a 90-s ergocycle test with a resistance of at least 0.1 kp/kg is required to appropriately assess maximal anaerobic power while anaerilic capacity might be measured with workloads as low as 0.05 kp /kg.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complex segregation analysis of blood pressure and heart rate measured before and after a 20-week endurance exercise training program: the HERITAGE Family Study.

TL;DR: Baseline resting blood pressure and heart rate and their responses to training were performed in a sample of 482 individuals from 99 white families who participated in the HERITAGE Family Study and no familiality was found in the whole sample or in the nonhigh subsample.
Journal ArticleDOI

Leptin receptor Gln223Arg variant is associated with a cluster of metabolic abnormalities in response to long‐term overfeeding

TL;DR: Leptin receptor Gln223Arg variant is associated with a cluster of metabolic abnormalities in response to long‐term overfeeding and should be considered a major concern for clinical practice.
